I see the human species waking up and realizing that what we actually are is a single planetary meta-organism, finally rendered coherent by the Internet. If search engines and online encyclopedias are the brain of this organism, and social networks are its nervous system, then what will be its heart, and what will be its soul? I try to build systems to help us bring those aspects more clearly into focus.

Why don’t Americans want broadband?

That’s obvious: they are watching TV 4 hours a day and don’t have time for the web. Just wait until they can get TV on the web, and it costs less than cable.
